Purpose of the role The Board of Trustees has adopted an ambitious three-year Business Plan () for Grand Junction. It commits the venue to moving from roughly one commercial hire a month to a sustainable rhythm of one revenue-generating event a week by 2030, with pricing that reflects the venue's true position among London's Grade I heritage venues, growing hire revenue across the period. The Venue Sales & Events Manager is the engine of that plan. The postholder will own the venue's various commercial revenue streams, including weddings, corporate events, film, TV and photography locations, private hire, plus cultural events and concerts. All while safeguarding the character of Grand Junction as both a cultural and community hub and a place of worship. This is a rare role: part sales and business development, part event management - in one of the most distinctive venues in central London, with every booking directly funding charitable work in the surrounding community. Key responsibilities 1. Sales, enquiries and pipeline management Own the full enquiry-to-booking journey across all revenue streams. Manage site visits including promoting the offer and converting interest into bookings. Be the named contact with continuity from first enquiry to event day. Build, maintain and report against a weekly KPI tracker covering enquiries, conversion rates, booking pace, average hire values and pipeline by stream. Build and manage our Recommended Suppliers offer, including caterers, photographers, florists, entertainment and production. Develop high quality brochures to promote tiered packages and seasonal offers. Build target lists of potential corporate buyers with a particular focus on the local business districts across Paddington and Marylebone. Responsibility for the planning and hosting of annual showcase events to attract corporate and individual hires. Develop event-agency relationships and partnerships with events professionals, such as wedding planners. Work with the Creative and Community Director on building long-term partnerships with repeat commercial cultural events organisations and support the resulting programming. In partnership with the Creative and Community Director, manage the relationship with London's top concert promoters and promoter-led hires on the cultural tariff. Grow the film, TV and photography stream keeping the location library, crew fact sheet, floor plans and rate card current; and meet the 48-hour quote standard that wins location work. Develop private hires through direct outreach to event production companies for events such as launches, galas, awards nights and London Fashion Week shows. 2. Event delivery, compliance and relationship with community team and church Deliver events to a high standard, coordinating with clients, technical staff, security, caterers, suppliers and casual event staff to ensure everything runs smoothly. As numbers of events grow, recruit an able and professional team of freelance event managers who can support event delivery. Manage the performance of this team through feedback and regular reviews. Maintain the shared calendar with the communities' team and Church ensuring double bookings are avoided, and space is allocated strategically to Grand Junction's different activities and hires. Prepare and enforce a Risk Assessment and Method Statement (RAMS) for all commercial bookings and manage the venue's operating constraints as defined by the Terms and Conditions and Grade I heritage sensitivities. In partnership with the Building Manager, ensure appropriate insurance, licensing, health and safety and safeguarding requirements are met for all commercial activity, escalating risks to the Creative and Community Director. 3. Marketing and brand Identify media opportunities including shoots, features and other social media content opportunities to increase the awareness and profile of the venue. Own the venue's listings estate: audit, rewrite and maintain every listing (Hitched, Bridebook, Coco Wedding Venues, HeadBox, Hire Space, Square Meal Venues and others). Lead on the venue's positioning and tone of voice, ensuring photography and pricing are regularly refreshed. Work with the Marketing Manager on campaigns and press opportunities and act as guardian of the positioning - 'London's most beautiful working church-venue, where every booking funds local good'. Contribute to owned channels: newsletters, Instagram and LinkedIn content showing the space dressed for events Coordinate freelance photography as required to ensure a location library that sells the venue to its full potential. 4. Finance, reporting and governance Arrange for the raising of invoices through PDT's finance processes. Track deposits and settlements. Manage event-level budgets, including in-house ticketed programming, bar and ancillary income. Produce the quarterly KPI dashboard for the Grand Junction Creative and Community Director and PDT's Chief Executive and Trustees, covering volume, revenue, conversion, channel performance and repeat-booking rates. Contribute to the annual pricing and channel reviews, and to reporting alongside PDT's Three-Year Fundraising and Income Strategy.

The position offers a hybrid working model, competitive salary between £95,000 - 135,000, plus benefits like generous leave and private healthcare.
Lighthouse Games is a premier AAA development studio situated in the historic gaming hub of Royal Leamington Spa. Our mission is simple but profound: to create world class gaming experiences that resonate with players on a global scale. We are building an ambitious, unannounced open world project that pushes the boundaries of current generation technology. Lighthouse Games is seeking a visionary Art Director to join our leadership team. In this role, you will be the North Star for our artistic departments, defining the aesthetic soul of a new universe. This is not just a role about oversight; it is about legacy. You will shape the visual language of an entirely new IP, ensuring that every vista, character, and interface element contributes to a cohesive and breathtaking player journey. Working alongside our Head of Art and Art Development Lead, you will play a pivotal role in elevating the studio's visual benchmark. We believe in a collaborative, innovative environment where creative leadership is empowered to experiment, iterate, and ultimately deliver perfection. Job Overview: Art Director Category: Art Director Company: Lighthouse Games Location: Royal Leamington Spa, England (Hybrid) Job Type: Full Time Estimated Salary Range: £95,000 - 135,000 GBP (Dependent on Experience + Bonus) Project Type: Unannounced AAA Open World IP Key Framework: Unreal Engine 5 Work Model: Hybrid (Studio Presence + Remote Flexibility) As the Art Director, your primary objective is to bridge the gap between abstract creative concepts and technical execution. You will hold the "Golden Thread" of the project's visual narrative, ensuring it remains unbroken from the earliest concept sketches to the final post processing passes. 1. Visionary Leadership & Aesthetic Direction You are the primary architect of the game's look and feel. Your responsibility is to develop and communicate an artistic vision that is not only high quality but also distinct in a competitive market. Draft and maintain comprehensive Style Guides that serve as the bible for all internal and external artists. Establish visual benchmarks that define the "Gold Standard" for environments, lighting, and character fidelity. Communicate the "why" behind the "what," ensuring every artist understands the emotional and narrative intent of their work. 2. Multidisciplinary Orchestration Modern AAA games are massive undertakings. You will lead and coordinate diverse art teams to ensure a unified output. Provide direction across Environment Art, Character Design, Animation, VFX, and UI/UX. Work closely with the Technical Art department to ensure that the visual ambition is achievable within the performance constraints of modern hardware. Lead the charge in resolving creative bottlenecks, offering elegant solutions when art and design goals appear to conflict. 3. Mentorship and Studio Culture At Lighthouse Games, we grow together. You aren't just a manager; you are a mentor. Conduct regular portfolio reviews and one on one sessions to foster the professional growth of your team. Maintain a high level of motivation and psychological safety within the art department, encouraging "fail fast" experimentation. Identify talent gaps and assist in the recruitment of world class artists to expand our growing studio. Technical Requirements & Experience Lighthouse Games is looking for a veteran who has weathered the storms of AAA development and emerged with a portfolio of shipped successes. AAA Pedigree: Extensive experience in a leadership or directorial capacity on major AAA titles. You understand the complexity, scale, and pressure of high end game production. Artistic Versatility: A deep understanding of current gaming trends, art styles, and historical art movements. You can pivot between hyper realism and stylised aesthetics if the project demands it. Engine Mastery: Proficiency with Unreal Engine (UE5 experience is a significant plus) and standard content creation suites (Maya, ZBrush, Substance Suite).

Lighthouse Games is a premier AAA development studio situated in the historic gaming hub of Royal Leamington Spa. Our mission is simple but profound: to create world class gaming experiences that resonate with players on a global scale. We are building an ambitious, unannounced open world project that pushes the boundaries of current generation technology. Lighthouse Games is seeking a visionary Art Director to join our leadership team. In this role, you will be the North Star for our artistic departments, defining the aesthetic soul of a new universe. This is not just a role about oversight; it is about legacy. You will shape the visual language of an entirely new IP, ensuring that every vista, character, and interface element contributes to a cohesive and breathtaking player journey. Working alongside our Head of Art and Art Development Lead, you will play a pivotal role in elevating the studio's visual benchmark. We believe in a collaborative, innovative environment where creative leadership is empowered to experiment, iterate, and ultimately deliver perfection. Job Overview: Art Director Category: Art Director Company: Lighthouse Games Location: Royal Leamington Spa, England (Hybrid) Job Type: Full Time Estimated Salary Range: £95,000 - 135,000 GBP (Dependent on Experience + Bonus) Project Type: Unannounced AAA Open World IP Key Framework: Unreal Engine 5 Work Model: Hybrid (Studio Presence + Remote Flexibility) As the Art Director, your primary objective is to bridge the gap between abstract creative concepts and technical execution. You will hold the "Golden Thread" of the project's visual narrative, ensuring it remains unbroken from the earliest concept sketches to the final post processing passes. 1. Visionary Leadership & Aesthetic Direction You are the primary architect of the game's look and feel. Your responsibility is to develop and communicate an artistic vision that is not only high quality but also distinct in a competitive market. Draft and maintain comprehensive Style Guides that serve as the bible for all internal and external artists. Establish visual benchmarks that define the "Gold Standard" for environments, lighting, and character fidelity. Communicate the "why" behind the "what," ensuring every artist understands the emotional and narrative intent of their work. 2. Multidisciplinary Orchestration Modern AAA games are massive undertakings. You will lead and coordinate diverse art teams to ensure a unified output. Provide direction across Environment Art, Character Design, Animation, VFX, and UI/UX. Work closely with the Technical Art department to ensure that the visual ambition is achievable within the performance constraints of modern hardware. Lead the charge in resolving creative bottlenecks, offering elegant solutions when art and design goals appear to conflict. 3. Mentorship and Studio Culture At Lighthouse Games, we grow together. You aren't just a manager; you are a mentor. Conduct regular portfolio reviews and one on one sessions to foster the professional growth of your team. Maintain a high level of motivation and psychological safety within the art department, encouraging "fail fast" experimentation. Identify talent gaps and assist in the recruitment of world class artists to expand our growing studio. Technical Requirements & Experience Lighthouse Games is looking for a veteran who has weathered the storms of AAA development and emerged with a portfolio of shipped successes. AAA Pedigree: Extensive experience in a leadership or directorial capacity on major AAA titles. You understand the complexity, scale, and pressure of high end game production. Artistic Versatility: A deep understanding of current gaming trends, art styles, and historical art movements. You can pivot between hyper realism and stylised aesthetics if the project demands it. Engine Mastery: Proficiency with Unreal Engine (UE5 experience is a significant plus) and standard content creation suites (Maya, ZBrush, Substance Suite). You should be comfortable "getting into the build" to review assets in context. Production Knowledge: A thorough grasp of modern pipelines, including photogrammetry, PBR workflows, and modular environment construction. Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills. You must be able to pitch a vision to stakeholders and provide granular, constructive feedback to junior artists alike.

ABOUT TRIP TRIP's mission is to create calm in the everyday chaos for our community, offering next-generation wellness products to power their lifestyle and nurture mental wellbeing. Co-founders, husband and wife team Olivia and Daniel discovered plant-based wellness after a transformative personal experience and decided to launch TRIP in 2019 to bring the most delicious, highest quality functional drinks and supplements to millions of people globally. Now the world's Calming Beverage Brand, TRIP's award-winning drinks and wellness products are crafted with botanicals and adaptogens to help people relax, unwind and find balance. Since launch, TRIP has rapidly expanded from the UK to across Europe and North America, generating over $100 million in sales. TRIP products are now available in leading supermarkets, natural retailers and online. Our vision is to become the global leader in calming drinks and supplements. Synonymous with calm in the same way Red Bull is with energy. We move fast, think big and are committed to becoming the defining brand for a generation who drinks less but prioritises mental wellbeing more than ever. There has never been a better time to join our incredible team and be part of the movement! THE ROLE Quality sits at the heart of everything we do. Our products are held to the highest standards, and our customers expect nothing less. As Global Quality Manager, you are the single global owner of product quality, food safety and technical systems across TRIP's full drinks and supplements portfolio, spanning every co-manufacturer, ingredient supplier and market we operate in across the UK, US and EU. This is a broader, more senior remit than a market specific quality role: rather than running quality for one region, you set and run the one global quality management system that every co manufacturer, in every market, is held to. You are the operational counterpart to the Global Compliance Manager: you own quality, food safety, specifications, testing and technical documentation; they own regulatory compliance, claims, trademarks and legal matters. Together, you both report into the Sr. Director of Global Compliance & Quality, and work as close partners across supply chain, NPD, commercial and customer care. New product development, ingredient approval strategy and shelf life/stability sign off are owned by the Sr. Director, you provide the quality and technical input those decisions rely on, rather than approving independently. This is a hands on, cross border role. Expect regular contact with co manufacturers and suppliers across all three regions, supporting new product launches, managing incidents when they arise, and keeping our quality controls sharp, with occasional international travel to production sites. This includes Global Quality Management System Own and continuously improve TRIP's global QMS - HACCP, prerequisite programmes, internal audit schedule and CAPA log - as a single system applied across every co manufacturer and market, not a market by market standard. Lead BRC (or equivalent GFSI-benchmarked) alignment and development across the entire co manufacturer network. Own product specifications, Bills of Materials (BOMs) and technical documentation globally, maintaining one master record set that UK, US and EU co manufacturers all work from, aligned with the compliance team's MPCs. Supplier & Co Manufacturer Quality (Global) Act as the primary quality contact for all of TRIP's co manufacturers and ingredient suppliers, across every region - not a single market. Manage supplier approval, ongoing quality KPIs, audit schedules and corrective action plans for ingredients, packaging and finished goods, globally. Conduct and coordinate supplier audits worldwide; provide constructive, relationship first feedback that drives improvement without damaging commercial partnerships. Perform risk assessments on raw materials and suppliers across all markets; elevate material risks to the Sr. Director of Global Compliance & Quality with clear recommendations. Testing, COA & Quality Monitoring Own the global product testing programme, ensuring the full TRIP range - in every market - is tested in accordance with agreed schedules, regulatory requirements and internal quality standards, and communicated to co manufacturers. Own Certificate of Analysis (COA) management and finished product standards across all co manufacturers. Monitor quality KPIs (out of specification incidents, customer complaints, defect rates, returns) globally, and drive continuous improvement activity wherever trends emerge. New Product Development - Quality & Technical Input Partner with the NPD and R&D teams to provide quality and technical input throughout new product development - from ingredient approval to launch, for products in any market. Support trial execution, sensory alignment and packaging integrity checks for new products globally, and flag technical risk on shelf life and stability testing to the Sr. Director rather than signing off independently. Ensure every new product that reaches launch has complete quality documentation and finished product specifications on file, regardless of market. Incident Management, CAPA & Recall Readiness Lead complaint investigations and quality incidents globally with tenacity - from initial triage through root cause analysis and prevention of recurrence. Own product recall readiness: maintain the recall plan and act as quality lead should one ever be triggered, in any market. Support the customer care team with expert technical knowledge on product quality queries and complaint resolution, worldwide. Coordinate cross functional problem solving across operations, supply chain and NPD - and loop in the Global Compliance Manager whenever a quality issue crosses into regulatory territory. Working with the Compliance Function Act as subject matter expert input into regulatory risk assessments, ingredient approval, claims substantiation and MPC/specification governance - while the Global Compliance Manager retains final regulatory and compliance sign off. Keep product specifications and BOMs aligned with the compliance team's MPCs and the Packaging Compliance Specialists' artwork records. Experience we're looking for: Essential Degree in Food Science, Chemistry, Microbiology or a related discipline. 5+ years' experience in a quality or technical role within consumer goods - specifically functional beverages and/or food/dietary supplements, including experience managing quality across more than one market or region. Hands on experience working with co packers or contract manufacturers, ideally spanning more than one country. Strong working knowledge of HACCP, GMP, prerequisite programmes and food safety certification schemes (BRC, ISO 22000, GFSI). Proven ability to manage supplier quality at scale, audits, KPI reporting, corrective actions - across multiple sites and suppliers simultaneously. Confident communicator, comfortable holding suppliers and co manufacturers to account across cultures and time zones while maintaining collaborative, long term relationships. Comfortable operating as the sole global owner of a function, with the judgement to know when to decide and when to elevate. Desirable Working familiarity with UK, US and/or EU food and food supplement regulatory frameworks (FSA, MHRA, FDA) - not to own compliance, but to work fluently alongside the Global Compliance Manager. Exposure to shelf life and stability testing in beverages, including packaging interactions and carbonation, sufficient to support the Sr. Director's sign off with technical detail. Experience in a scale up or high growth, multi market FMCG environment. Prior experience building or maturing a QMS/BRC programme from the ground up. Direct experience with US Dietary Supplements (Supplement Facts, 21 CFR Part 111 cGMP) - this would be a standout, exceptional fit for the role.
